You have your website set-up....what now? Your first step is getting your website ready for the search engines. The sooner you do this, the sooner your can get indexed and ranked in Google (and other search engines) which is going to lead to your traffic and revenue.

In this video, I am going to be walking you through the following:

(1) What is SEO and how does it work(2) Why is SEO important to your online business(3) How to activate your plugins(4) How to set-up the All in One SEO plugin(5) How Good SEO looks in Google(6) Understanding home titles and descriptions

If you have any questions about the set-up of the All in One SEO wordpress plugin or you have any questions about the SEO topics discussed in this video, please leave your questions below and I will be more than happy to help you out.

PS. As mentioned in the video, your website will take typically between 7-14 days to initially get indexed in Google. If your site is not quite indexed, that is fine. No need to panic, it WILL happen!

Ok, this video is a great one but the material is going to take a little while to sink in with me. I am sure I will have some questions but I can’t really formulate them until I start working on the assignment. Does anyone else feel like this?

As you move through the training many of your questions are likely going to be answered Linda. But if you can formulate your questions at any point or you are feeling stuck, please let us know. The more specific the better, but you have LOTS of help here every step of the way.

Lester! my sympathy completely. I think its the generation thing too,young people grew up in this environment its easy for them. I have to say I continue with the program but I do not think its as easy as the founders admit to it.

Lester! my sympathy completely. I think its the generation thing too,young people grew up in this environment its easy for them. I have to say I continue with the program but I do not think its as easy as the founders admit to it.

I actually did when I started. As a beginner, it may feel as though you are blindly doing things wihout understanding all the ins and outs. But go ahead and take action where it is recommended by Kyle, and as you move forward and develop your website you will get some ah-ha moments as you realize why you did what you did earlier. Take your time and go at your own pace. All the best.

All right. I went to the SEO All In One and did as instructed, typing in the title and description, but when I return to WA, that information is blank again. Is it saved? Why is it gone now, or seemingly so? Have I done something wrong or neglected to do something? Is there anything else I need to do before checking the boxes for completing the tasks for this lesson?

(3) How to activate your plugins
(4) How to set-up the All in One SEO plugin
(5) How Good SEO looks in Google
(6) Understanding home titles and descriptions

Pieces of the puzzle coming together, so that my website can be noticed, optimized and become lucrative.

The set up process was rather simple, thank u...simple is good. Small actions done, bit by bit as we put our individual puzzles together.

Hello, I am understanding just fine "how" to set up all my SEO stuff, but I'm stressing a little on how I'm supposed to write a description for my site. Like, okay, I have a "niche" already. I know what I'm after , but there's nothing actually There yet, I have no real stuff going on on my site, and I'm not "Affiliated" (?) With any actual products yet- so how can I describe my site yet???

It’s no different than anything else you’d build. You have to start somewhere, right? So if you’re wanting to write a description for your site, tell how your site will be about x, y, and z. Then, as you progress through the training you’ll start writing content and filling it with great posts and pages as Kyle directs you and your site will begin to fill out. Don’t overthink it :) you’re doing just fine and remember, your site is just for you right now. Traffic comes later, for now, your building the framework and you have the best training platform in the world guiding you step by step.

Thank you so much! All of you guys here at WA answering my questions. I have now created what I feel is a pretty good breif description of my site...next I move on to the "about me" page . Haha...yeah. I'm a little confused on what it means to "be my own brand" and how I can describe that.

Your About Me is just an introduction from yourself to the reader. Share who you are and what you're about. That's all. Not much different from your user description here. You can look at a few other About Me's to get an idea.

OK, I'm totally confused about something. It concerns all the different titles and naming of items.

1, There's what's in the URL -- the domain name -- which I understood did NOT HAVE TO necessarily be the Title of your Blog. But related to it. Is that right, or no?Mine is bestartanddesignblog.com (Best Art and Design Blog).

"Home Title - This is the title of your website that will show up when you get ranked in Google and other search engines. This won't actually show up on your site. You want this to reflect the actual title of your website that you created with your site, but also add something to make it a bit more captivating."

So, this seems to be saying that the domain name IS the title of your site -- because this, the Home Title," is NOT. Or did I miss a step for somewhere?

And you don't use the Home Title on your web site anywhere? Or is it just a set of key words that will rank well? If that's the case, then you have to be really careful what those words are.

Ok, thank you. And so in terms of domain name (the URL) and the title of your website: they HAVE TO be the same thing? Or can they be different? And if different, I guess you can add that title to the pages of your web site? (I'm only on the first few lessons of Level 2)

The Home page title could be Best Art and Design Blog - Terry At Her Best. The URL to your site will therefore always be the same but as you create pages and posts you will give each of them a title which will be preceded by the site name.

just finished watcvhing video an seo and getting website ready. I don't remember if or what web site I started back in one of those lessons. should I go back and find out what my website is about or start another because my direction has kind of changed from two weeks ago. I guess I am trying to redirect my efforts to start making some kind of revenue. to be able to pay for things that will come up in the future and as one said in a messsage it would be good if you are making money so you can tell others that you acftually did make money on line.

It's easier if you pace yourself, one lesson at a time, chose one little thing. You can go back, make changes and bring yourself up to where you left off. The great part you get more comfortable. That will help narrow time down later. It's not set yet.

Hi all, I really liked Kyle's great videos on SEO settings (2 I think). I finally have a decent website Home Title and Home Description...

Can I come back at any time and modify them if I want to improve them?
Also, the registration of an website domain: I think it has to be done manually by me, by clicking on the Register my Domain button. But what is the significance of registering? Is it desirable and/or necessary? Is there a cost for it?

Now that I have started to think about the information I will use to add content to my website, I want to change the URL wording for my site. Is this possible, or do I have a restart from scratch?

URLs are set in stone so once set you need to start over
Home Title and Home Description can be updated at any time
Registering a domain costs between ten to fifteen dollars, having your own domain looks more professional then a site rubix domain, however this can be done at anytime so you can start your site on a site rubix domain and upgrade to a URL at a future date

Hi Kyle, my website was ranked by Google but if I do a search using the keywords it takes me to the About page of the site. I was kind of hoping that it would direct the search results to the home page. I titled the home page and put in a description and quite possibly in my ignorance I did the same for the About page. Is this a reason why Google has picked it up and ranked this page?

Hi Rob, I'm aware of the live chat on the right and that's exactly what it is - a chat. This is the forum to ask questions that are relative to the topic. Perhaps if you aren't able to answer you'd like to consider not responding.

should I set up my home title and home description before moving on to the next lesson? Also, I am making my website about fitness and women over 50 which is an interest for me. I don't have actual training for this area only experience. So my concern is, how will I be able to manage my webpage without anything to backup what I may write about?

Yes, you should set up your home title and home description before moving onto the next lesson. Follow the lessons and the tasks set for each lesson.

Do not worry about not being an expert. To be an expert in a lot of fields, you do not need to have a PhD, MD, or something similar. You can build up your understanding of your niche through writing articles and reading about the subject. It does not hurt to have training, but you will become an expert in time. I hope this helps you.

My All in One SEO is recommending that I install the "Easy Primary Category" plug in for my theme. I have no idea what this means. Do people generally default to the WordPress suggestions? Is it a good rule of thumb to always accept the suggestions? The plug in is defined as follows:

If someone can explain what this means in layman terms I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks!

"Allows you to choose primary category for posts and custom post types.

When the permalink structure includes category, the category marked as Primary, will be used for generating the permalink of the post.

Works with custom post types and custom taxonomies as long as the taxonomy supports hierarchical structure."

All I can say now is that you do not actually need it or be concern with that right now. Simply install the All in One SEO as the training suggests and you should be fine. You can always add this feature later depending the structure of your website.

Nice video Kyle.What I'm trying to understand is that when I go into my All in one SEO menu and stroll down to Homepage settings I see a Home Title,Home Description and also Home Keywords.What do I do about Home Keywords do I fill that in with different keywords relating to my niche?

Hi Kyle, thankyou for your amazing patient teaching style it shows.
I did have a question: do you suggest we do this after writing a post on our site , where it says we can start writing ; and then doing the SEO ?
Also I chose the revive theme and in the basic template layout it looks like contemporary boxes with ribbons . I love that. So how do we do that on revive theme?

This section is a big concern of mine. I work for a company that deals with a lot of web sales and eBay and ship all over the world. I over hear at times it pricey with Google to get that added boost and eBay can be a hassle if shipment goes wrong or product runs out faster than expected. We get dinged with eBay if product runs out and have to back order items. I need to do further research on that.

This was great info. So if I understand correctly, the title of our site really doesn't have to be the same as our website name, correct? From the examples I saw on the Google page, most of them were different. That is great for those of us who did not have site names available that really nailed down our niche as well as we wanted it to.

I did the SEO stuff and my page does not at all look like Kyles page. For example I do not see a page with the text "nothing found" I did the title and description and the upgrade button. When I right click on my page I do not get the html text showing the title or description. Instead I get the long dropdown menu for copy etc. just like with any web page. Any ideas out there please?

mm sorry I have the windows Edge browser,
but try to press F12 and see if it opens Developers tool... but source view I think it was removed some time ago and needs to be activated editing registry data which I don't think you want to do...

try F12 to open tools and see if code shows up or from developer tools choose view source (if enabled)... sorry I don't have 11 here so I cannot actually check it out myself

Hello again TCUK, I tried the F12 route and received no coding text. On the bottom third of the screed appeared a line of terms such as DOM Explorer, Console, Debugger, Network Performance, etc., etc., I believe it's time to call in the cavalry. Any suggestion how I can contact Kyle directly?

I read online that some time ago Microsoft disabled the View Source from 11 and that you have to Enable that option editing a registry key.

BUT.... the thing is you don't really need to do this, you don't need to see the page source, Kyle did that in the video to explain what was being changed.

If you search on google something like
view page source with internet explorer 11
you should see some page explaining how to do it, but really you don't need to.

In terms of contacting Kyle directly, look in your message box here in WA, top right icon menu where you have the 100-airplane, world notification.... Envelope... click on the envelope, you may find in there a direct message from Kyle that you may have already received when you first joined... if it's there I guess you can simply hit Reply :)

Kyle thank you so much for this walkthrough. But i have one question. After completeing everything here at this stage including the submition of my website to search engiens, how do i get a response from them that my website has been approved and can now be ranked and am i asured that they are going to approve and accept my website

May I ask please ~ are apostrophe's alright to use in the home description field? When using the apostrophe in the description field it shows up as other strings-of-characters in the source meta name section. When I removed the apostrophe from the home description field those other strings-of-characters disappeared from the source section. So, does it really matter or is it best to not use apostrophe's? Thank you! (This was quite difficult to put in words :-).

Thank you, Kyle!
I love to watch this video, first! while, watching and listening, I take a couple of notes! This gives, me, a wonder over of what to expect!...Covering my learning style...Auditory, Kinesthetic, and visual!
All, bases, are covered!
Now, it's game on!! Computer, stuff, is always, a touch and go game!
Hoping to hit a Homerun...Out of the ballpark!!
Thanks, again, Kyle!
Barb

Well I am really thankful that I took a detour on Thursday NZ time because I have learnt so much Kyle this is amazing information and I genuinely believe that we are being set up to succeed which has really motivated me to do a lot of hard yards.

Thank you so much and I've only just begun but I'm loving it because you speak my language.
Chow for now!
Sue

I take a look at each of the videos 2-3 times, the first time is just a mind "warmer-upper", then as he's walking me through I tend to switch back and forth to make adjustments, etc to my website. I love the videos because I benefit so much more than reading something. Thanks Kyle!!

Good day I had too same issue as Google Ad sense don't like the domain site rubix. then I purchased a new domain name which includes hosting and word press comes ready to you. Buy one now from WA as it is needed for Google ad sense and see few blogs done with your training then you get ranked in Google. Hope this helps you.

This video is half way solving my problems. The question is as many pages and posts have already been created should I type in titles and the descriptions on all? And your last action I didn't know where you got the title codes. Also how do I get my IP address. Thanks Kyle for this lesson

Linah, If you are using the All In One SEO plugin which is what Kyle uses in the video demonstration, then all your posts and pages titles and descriptions should happen automatically. If you open one of your pages or posts, in Edit view, scroll down to below the end of the content, you will see details of the SEO plugin as it shows in the video. There, you will see the title and description of that post or page which has been automatically formulated by the plugin. Therefore, you do not need to enter titles and descriptions. They are there for you automatically.

You get your IP address by going to Google and entering into the search bar - What is my IP address. Immediately, your IP address will appear.

One important thing to remember about your IP address is that it changes quite frequently. You can't control the changes. Therefore, every so often, maybe each month, check again with a Google search - What is my IP address.

I have just watched the Getting your website SEO ready video and tried to do the same in my site. My question, Do we type manually the title and the description in the All in one SEO settings and save or they are automatically picked from the site. Please help. Do we wait until website is indexed by google and do the settings? mine is not indexed but in the video demo used it was indexed.

The All in one SEO will show you recommended titles, but you will still have to type them in yourself (as well as a description). It will show you a preview as you type to give you an idea of how it will look on Google. You can do it anytime, no need to wait for index ;-)

Am so happy about my website and I just update my SEO, cant wait to get it fully up and running...Thanks again sir Kyle and all the other members who assisted even tho I didn't ask much questions, but reading from others really do help..thanks again to you all!!!

Great to hear, this will set up your website properly for SEO and as you build out your content now moving forward, you will start to get indexed and with TIME, start to see some really awesome rankings.

Hi I had a website brought over and it already had Yoast SEO - so has some descriptions etc already showing up on google search.
When I activate all in one SEO i get a pop up asking if i want to import settings from Yoast.
I have activated allin one seo but yoast still shows up - do i delete yoast or just import the settings?
Thanks
Ian

For one u can keep Yoast if u like it. It is the same as all-in-one SEO. But if u are going to keep All-in-One SEO then deactivate Yoast after u have imported the settings. Then after it is deactivated then u can keep it or delete it. Up to u.

Hi
First of all, I am a complete newbie in regards to SEO. I always thought keywords were important, but in your video, you said that they are not. In fact, you even turned off the keyword search in the All-in-one. I would appreciate very much if you can outline what are the important things that the SEO software look for?
Appreciate your help.
Victor Liu

Hello Victor we are in the same boat when it comes to SEOs, but I will try and help you out with this. Keywords in your posts are crucial for people to find your website and posts. They create traffic and potential converts and buyers. It is only in the All in One SEO that Kyle is saying that it is not important to enable, not the rest of your website.

6. You will know your website is indexed when you
type this on your browser: site:http://yourdomain.com
It won't show your pages if not indexed.
7. Wait for ranking by Google (different from being indexed)

Submit your sitemap.xml in the search console as well.
the All-in-one SEO plugin can generate and place your sitmap.xml on you website. Needed for big websites as it helps the google bot to find its way around and learn the structure of large site.

yes... the Search console is the new face for the SEO management... I was thinking of putting something together but need to wait till I'm able to use the create training button.. ha ha.. Saved by the bell

Great lesson Kyle! I was wondering if anyone could clarify to me whether it would be beneficial to keep the "tagline" in the Home Title the same as the "sub-title" in the website title. Does one or the other increase or decrease the odds of driving more traffic to the website?

In the page SEO fields are the Title, Description and optional keywords. Priority is to have your best keyword/phrases as part of the page Title. SEO does not render any benefits from the tagline or sub-title of the page. Perhaps there is additional information from the team.

I can't believe how these guys make something so complex and foreign so simple. I knew absolute nothing about SEO's, not even what the acronym meant, and I feel totally confident after watching the videos and following the steps. I know the content only gets better and more exciting from here (traffic and revenue!!). On to lesson 7 I go!!

This is a 'basics you need without the peripherals you don't need' approach which is awesome. I've already got my web site indexed in google so now all I need to do is update my site as frequently as possible and make content changes that will help its rank. Thanks for the assistance so far Kyle. Its all been great!

OMG! I can't believe that I am finally this far along in my journey!
I've been learning a lot. Had the chance to really dig in and log in some hours of work on my website. I'm still playing around with different layouts and design work. Still lots to learn and I am very excited about the progress! Congrats to those that are pressing on and making lots of head way.

Although this is my second year with WA, I have been on the margin since I signed up so my first year premium just went to waste. I hope this year will be different, and I look forward to that. I am just getting back on my feet to re-establish, and I am really starting all over as I have long forgotten anything that I learned from the very beginning. I am going through the lessons and videos once more, and I can say that so far it has been so good. This particular video is so informative and is helping me big time along the way. Thank You!

How do I get back to the link for the All-in-one packet. I want to compare prices on an offer I got in my email. The email is not from WA, as near as I can figure. Its a Black F. coupon offer for P off. $97 for 10 websites, annually. I am planning at least 3 sites, eventually.

So if I have purchased the domain, then I will be able to just Google for the purchase of the SEO all in one, and they will be able to link it?Or will they be able to link it to my siterubix already? By the way, my site is up for review and I have not heard any suggestions come through. If you have a minute please tell me how this works? I wanted to get through the initial review, submit it to the community. Then, I was hoping to create the Black. F. page, after getting the domain. Only problem is, I am crashing! Thanks for trying to help! Lynne

Got my all in one SEO and plug ins ready to go. As well as a brief title for my home page and description title. Also change the pipes, because it does just look better :)
Moving on along, these videos and training are awesome. Have a good day every one. Good luck building your sites, were in the way!!

I did first keyword search in JAAXY and got a list however...
QSR, KQI, SEO and Domains all blanked out. Plus, after the 15th keyword, the rest of the keywords are blurred out. A pop up at the bottom says upgrade to get full access.
What good is this "30 free searches" if more than half the information is missing?
It's a waste of time. Surely there are other sites or methods to get better information than this misleading website!!!

Thanks, I am well aware of what free versions normally do to entice you to sign up but, unless I am mistaken, thought Kyle's video said or implied that with the 30 free searches we would get all the information he was showing in the vid.

JAAXY, not withstanding how good they may be, is no different than many other sites with a misleading "free" trial offer. It is a personal peeve of mine - never saw the need to mislead - tell it like it is and then people sign on knowing what to expect

I have been reading about SEO and the importance of keywords on the sites.
my question is, how to insert keywords in my pages/blog?
Is it as simple as inserting these keywords in relevant sentences and that is it?
should I copy/paste from a keyword tool?
are these keywords hyperlinks?

Yes, you have to incorporate the keywords naturally so it doesn’t sound awkward. To insert keywords you can either manually type it in your contents or copy and paste it to your contents. You can also make your keywords as hyperlinks if you want to.

Vini welcome to Premium WA. Your questions can be answered by putting them in the question box above your name. I do know that Keywords are to be inserted in your content and your content has to be related to your title. Hope that helps.

Another thing also, I see in your training that google index won't be available for at lease 7 days? Can I still have my web running and see how it goes? I only have 4 days left on my free trail period. It would make more sense to give ppl 14 days. So than we can see if this works or not? I for one love all the help but I been setting up this thing for the past few days and I'm frustrated. Thanks for your help

Google will usually index your site naturally in about 7 days if you are publishing content (pages and posts)
As soon as you have your site set up and have published content, your site is running and fully operational.
This is normal so keep moving forward and it will happen.

I'm having issues with the web site twenty fourteen. Its not giving me all the guides on the left or the ability to put three pictures on top or the two on the side like I see on the starter page. I setup the page and its only giving me four radio buttons on the left side nothing like the original preview. What I'm I doing wrong or should I start over??

I believe the guides on the left you are referring to would be your main menu that needs to be configured.
The 3 across the top would be set using featured images.
The pictures along the sides are done using widgets
Where are you in the training? these things should be covered as you move forward
I used to use that theme so let me know if you need any further help.

Hi Kyle ,this is Pea,I'm trying to set up my website but on the ALL IN ONE SEO page, I followed the video how to set it up. And on my Home Page it's just the Home Title and the Home Describtion but there is no Keywords section.I already set up the three page ,but when I View my site ,still say nothing found..Really need help to move forward.My website is miraculousworkabusiness.org.Thank you.

Kyle said it himself that it isn’t that important so don’t worry much about it. In case you still want to fill it in, here’s how.

While you’re in the All In One SEO setting, scroll all the way down to the Keyword Settings – Use Keywords. Tick Enabled. Scroll back up to the Home Page Settings, the Home Keywords should be there.

As for the nothing found, that’s because you haven’t created a post yet. If what you mean by nothing found is you don’t see your pages on your site menu navigation after you published it, then the solution is you have to add them to your menu. Here’s how

Go to Appearance - Menus. If you haven’t created a menu, you should create one. Under Pages on the left, tick the pages you want and click Add to Menu. You'll see the pages added to the Menu Structure on the right. Click, drag and drop it up or down to rearrange the order.

I'm having troubles finding a great home title and description.
My niche is about inspiring and motivating others through life and fitness. I want to help people keep motivated, keep positive about every roadblock they encounter in life whether it's during weight loss or struggles they may be having.

So far I have been plugging away at this for about 4 days now, off and on, and I have learned more than I have in the last 4 weeks! Even when I have my 3 year old climbing on me the lessons are easy to follow and setup is a breeze!

I found it easy to have two pages open. One to watch and pause the video. The second one to pause the video and do the activity immediately after it is explained. If I wait until the end of the video, I found I forgot how to do the task. Has anyone tried to do the steps for Get Started Here and Affiliate Bootcamp simultaneously? In other words, once you do a step for Get Started Here, jump over and do the same step for your niche to promote Wealthy Affiliate?

If you want to do both I would suggest complete the 10 lessons in Course One in Getting Started and then go to Course One do all the lessons in Affiliate BootCamp...that's what I'm doing and have found it's not so confusing...

The first time I viewed the video it was very noisy where I was and I couldn't focus on the message. I was totally confused after the first time through and it stopped my progress for a day or two.
The second time I had the volume turned up and my website up. I could see where I misunderstood some things and was able to make corrections in how I approached each step. It was good for me to pause the video so I could do the exact same things to my website as you did.

Kyle, You asked for questions and I have one. My Domain Name is Click Pick and Save
I chose Baby Clothes for my Niche.
My Domain Name is the only thing showing in my Browser. Hard to get ranked without naming a product or niche for the Search Engines
How do I correct what I have done?
Appreciate all the help I can get from the community or you.
Thank you very much.

Hello Will: I think that you should not worry about this. Kyle is taking us step-by-step through the process. I'm sure he will give us the info we need to have a completely functioning website by Lesson 10.

Hi, on setting up the SEO, I realised my title does not convey the right message.....Silly me put "Over 50 and losing weight" which will make people think I am looking for those losing weight, and not those WANTING to lose weight. Can I correct the title.....? In SEO General, I added, "or not?" to the title, but would prefer to change it. Groan struggling with the title, help!! Thanks (NB due to time diff, will be off for a while - so excuse none response)

I am so sorry that I have so many questions but do I have to make my home page title the same as my website or can I have variations? example website Meals in 30 minutes. I would like the title to be a variation= delicious meals in minutes (or something like that)

Usually your website title will be fixed as it is like your brand, nobody would change their brands frequently. However you can create articles or pages using the title and discuss them in the way you wanted to as articles and pages titles will also be indexed by the search engine.

hi i could not continue with setting up because there is a page to join the mailing list. there is no way to delete it or get around it. i don't want to sign up for this, so what do i do to be able to continue setting up my seo?

Hi guys. Watched the video and have concluded that I cannot expect to understand everything the first time around the block. Repetition is the key to retention. Shame on the pedagogical tyrants who brainwash pupils with elitist mentalities!!!! Wealthy Affiliate has become the vital resource to recover from years of traumatic exposure to toxic waste sites existing under the alias of K-12 educational institutions that I found a way to survive by the Grace of God!!!
